Rumour Mill

Quoted from Croxton

At least you knew the result! In the fifties, it was the GT that gave the scores. My Croxton paper round was 14 houses, 2 street lights and yapping dogs. Good tips at xmas though.

How did you fit 2 street lights in your satchel

Not “Catering”, It may have been mis-heard and actually was “Kettering”.  Maybe we are getting a player from them? 😏

Let’s at least sign the fúcking right one this time.

“Hello Grimsby, so let’s just get this straight - YOU want to pay US money to take Makofo off our hands? Oh, err...we’re going to have to have a long, hard think about that.

“After much deliberation, we reluctantly accept your offer”.

If the team you’re buying a player from literally dropping him off for you isn’t a warning sign, I don’t know what is.

Another no from me, seems to have had 2 decent seasons for Mansfield and pretty much becoming another journeyman...that's him signed then I suppose going on our normal track record!!!

I’m on the fence, I think given a run in  the team he’ll bag more than the current forwards we have, but still it’s just a rumour and I can’t see him taking a huge pay cut to come here

Seem to recall MJ saying that we were already talking to players before the end of the season. It would be nice to hear something from the club, it’s very quiet compared to The Jolley Revolution used to sell season tickets last year.

Tbh Pogo, I'm convinced we'll see Dennis sign on a permanent, can't see him wanting to play tinpot again and reckon we'd get him for a song ..
As for our current forwards, do we really have a striker on the books who knows where the onion bag is??..
Just know I'm getting increasingly frustrated with the lack on action on the incomings and can see last minute bargain buckets as per the the GTFC mantel..

I wouldn’t be against Dennis coming back, he was starved of service which was blatantly obvious so if we could bring in a creative player or two along with Dennis I think we’d be in ok shape attacking wise. I’m like you north bank frustration at the lack of activity but it’s still very early days and let’s be honest we won’t be the first option for a lot of decent players

Most teams haven't made a signing yet and what news can the club give us realistically? It's not like they can give us names. No doubt Jolley will be working hard to make deals happen and I'm pretty sure he only just returned from holiday.
